Rare Combination of Phenotypes of Karyomegalic Interstitial Nephritis and Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease in an Omani Child. [PDF]
Autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease is one of the most prevalent inherited cystic kidney diseases in infants and children, common in highly consanguineous societies such as Oman. Karyomegalic interstitial nephritis is a rare cause of hereditary

Approach to Inherited Cystic Kidney Disease
Cystic kidney diseases are the most frequent form of inherited kidney diseases which have different etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation and prognosis. Although diagnosis based on, family history, clinical presentation and imaging modalities, in

Fetal polycystic kidney disease: Pathological overview
Polycystic kidney disease is a rare developmental anomaly inherited as autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive. It is characterized by cystic dilatation of the collecting ducts frequently associated with hepatic involvement and progression to renal ...

Wall Tension and Tubular Resistance in Kidney Cystic Conditions
The progressive formation of single or multiple cysts accompanies several renal diseases. Specifically, (i) genetic forms, such as adult dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), and (ii) acquired cystic kidney disease (ACKD) are probably the most ...

Ciliopathies - from rare inherited cystic kidney diseases to basic cellular function
BackgroundPrimary cilia are membrane-bound microtubule-based protuberances of the cell membrane projecting to the extracellular environment. While little attention was paid to this subcellular structure over a long time, recent research has highlighted ...
